AIUI, the purpose of not allowing cancellation of the vote at any time
is to avoid "it's about to fail so I'll pull it, to avoid the 6 month
cooldown before I can resubmit" situations. I'm not sure how big of a
concern that is.
Personally I'd be fine allowing a cancellation up to the 1 week mark;
that gives a bit more time to hear if "I'd vote yes except for this one
small issue" is a significant enough constituency that it's worth
short-circuiting the process without delaying another release cycle.
Okay, I find 1 week to be a reasonable compromise and have just made the
change to the RFC.
I am treating this change as a major change. Given that the discussion
has effectively come to an end, I expect to start the vote shortly after
the two weeks have passed. I'll send a separate official Intent to Vote
at a later point.
